摘要

摘要本研究旨在探讨性别、自尊和健康控制点对奈及利亚西南部两个州退休人员生活满意度的直接影响。采用事后研究设计，592名退休人员方便地完成了一份问卷，其中包括人口统计数据和感兴趣的变量的测量。对三个假设进行独立组间的t检验。自尊显著影响生活满意度t(590) = 3.39, p.05。在退休后过着更满意的生活是拥有积极的自我尊重或对健康行为负责的一个功能。利用影响变量可能有助于提供自我发展方案，从而确保对退休人员的照顾和支持，使他们在为国家无私服务后能够享受和过上充实的生活。

Life Satisfaction in Retirement: The Direct Influence of Gender, Self-esteem and Health Locus of Control in Southwestern Parts of Nigeria

ABSTRACT The study investigates the direct influence of gender, self-esteem and health locus of control on life satisfaction among retirees in two states in the South-western part of Nigeria. Using ex-post facto research design, 592 retirees conveniently completed copies of a questionnaire that comprised demographics and measures of variables of interest. Three hypotheses were tested by t-test for independent groups. Self-esteem significantly influenced life satisfaction t(590) = 3.39, p<.05. Similarly, health locus of control significantly influenced life satisfaction t(590) = 3.87, p<.05. However, no significant influence of gender on life satisfaction t(590) = 0.08, p>.05. Living a more satisfied life in retirement is a function of having positive self-regards or being responsible for health-related behaviour. Harnessing the influencing variables may help in the provision of self-development programmes, therefore ensuring care and support for retirees to enjoy and live a fulfilled life after selfless service to their nation.
